Abigail Reynolds is the nationally bestselling author of Austenesque gaslamp fantasy, Regency variations on Pride & Prejudice, and modern novels set on Cape Cod.
Apparently the question of who would write the Reader’s Perspective this week was about to degenerate into virtual fisticuffs, but Evie and Dave resolved it by deciding to write it together. A dangerous precedent to allow them to work together – now they’re hatching all sorts of schemes! – Abigail DM- My first reaction to …
This week we’ve taken a couple of days to celebrate Pride & Prejudice: The Scenes Jane Austen Never Wrote, an anthology many of us participated in, by sharing a few of our favorite scenes from it. It started a couple of years ago with a project called P&P200 where we took turns writing missing scenes …
23 September 1812 Bingley had entered the morning room to find Darcy dressed for a journey, which had brought a surprise to his friend’s countenance. “Darcy, it appears you plan to leave Netherfield today?” “I do, Bingley.” He had spent a restless night anguishing over what he would say to his most loyal friend. “Why …
This week Monica Fairview and Abigail Reynolds have blessed us with glimpses into Elizabeth’s mind. After reading these excerpts I must retract about half of what I said last week. No longer am I concerned about the pace of the writing and no longer am I concerned with Elizabeth’s rather sudden change of heart. We …

November 16, 1811 To Mr. Darcy it was welcome intelligence—Elizabeth had been at Netherfield long enough. She attracted him more than he liked—and Miss Bingley was uncivil to her, and more teasing than usual to himself. He wisely resolved to be particularly careful that no sign of admiration should now escape him, nothing that could …
Poor Evie! She was kind enough to agree to step up and take over the Reader’s Perspective post at the last minute for Dave McKee, and instead of giving her a gentle start, we gave her a tough chapter to comment on. Fortunately, she’s a very nice person and will probably forgive me some day …

Welcome back to Dave McKee, our Fearless Reader! Today he’s doing double duty – first commenting on his reactions to Maria Grace’s Regency Interpreter, then on to the latest chapter of The Darcy Brothers. To help provoke arguments encourage discussion, there will be prizes for commenters on this week’s Reader Perspectives: a Theo Darcy tote …
We’re welcoming back Dave McKee for another round of Reader’s Perspectives on The Darcy Brothers. Now, some of you may know we co-opted Dave to write the first few of these because we couldn’t stop him from giving his opinion of his enduring interest in the story, but we’d love to hear from other readers who …
